    7:50 I've always seen hyperlapses of it, but never video. Interesting to see a real time video. I was not aware that it stayed visible in the sky for that long. I thought it was like lightning, where it flashed for a second, and then flashed again.

    Absolutely love the honest portrayal of just how difficult it is to capture video in EXTREME low light - I am curious to know with your attempt to capture video using the Mavic3, where the lights out of focus, or is that the way the lights truly look? - I also own a Mavic3 & understand the difficulty in low light video & how you have to think on your feet so as to make the most of very rare events - GREAT JOB! 👏

    Those Hyper-lapses! Omg!
    I've learned that putting your exposure down can help bring out the light. You can also put ND/4 filter to get the same effect. This works well for video.
    Or you can put a ND/16 OR ND/32 and do a 5 - 10 second exposure to get some really good pictures!
